TWELVE LINCOLN EVENING JOURNAL, THURSDAY, MAY 27. Big Ten conference has brought a long simmering warfare out into the open. At its last meeting the Western conference took the first step toward pow er for the colleges Wer Uncle Sam's Olympic teams. The Big Ten barred its track and field athletes from competing in meet not conducted by colleges or collegiate groups. Francis J.

Powers interprets this as a direct slap at the A. A. 17. When and if other college groups Join the Big Ten's stand, the A. A.

U. will be seriously hit.

FORFEIT $5,000 Schulte said. However, it has been that many college men wef incensed with the manner in which the last Olympic team was handled, notably some of the better known west coast conference track coaches. With the Big Ten taking the first step, it may not be long before the Pacific coast conference. Big Six and other collegiate groups fall in line. Another development at the last Big Ten meeting was the application-for membership which Michigan State made.

It was presumed that Michigan State was putting in a bid to be considered first in case Chicago university gives up its charter membership. DROGRESS is being made slowly in procuring the property north of the stadium which will be used for football practice fields, a baseball diamond and intramural activities. There is a possibility that one block of it will be ready in 90 days, John Selleck said. When this new layout is obtained it will relieve the varsity practice layout inside the stadium. However, the varsity will continue using the stadium practice field.

The new fields will not be inclosed as is the south hill layout, woven wire making it next to impossible to hold a secret workout. Obtaining the property has been a tedious task. Some owners are out of line in prices asked, others have died and the heirs reside in California which means long- correspondence. However, progress is being made, Selleck said. Dobbins pays tribute to the City league's brand of baseball thus far displayed with these figures and comment: "Baseball patrons at Landis have been surprised at the high caliber of play exhibited by the City leaguers.

In the six games played to date the scores have been to 7, 6 to 4. 6 to 5, 6 to 4, 6 to 4 and 2 to 0. The Power- Woodmen game went ten innings. Sterling pitching performances were turned in by Dale Larson, 2 hits; Heinle Herzog, 4 hits; Chaunccy Scott, 5 hits; Graydon Smith, Russ Sieck and Bud Breit- feldcr, 6 hit games.

(UP). Heavyweight Champion James J. Braddock was ordered to return to New York state by Saturday and complete his training for a title defense against Max Schmeling June 3 under a possible threat by the New York athletic commission to vacate his title, if he ignores the edict.

Braddock is training at Grand Beach, to fight Joe Louis in Chicago June 22, and "much too busy" to come to New York, his manager Joe Gould, said. In ordering Braddock and Gould to return, the commission mention of penalties, boxing observers agreed that the ruling athletic body had no alternative except to vacate the championship and name Schmeling as No. 1 challenger, or lose its last vestige of prestige. Commission Chairman John J. Phelan refused to discuss the possibilities of Braddock's refusal to comply with orders sent.

Meantime, Madison Square Garden went ahead with its ticket sale for the June 3 bout and Schmeling trained at his Speculator. N. camp. The commission also notified the German challenger that its physician, Dr. William H.

Walker, "would visit Speculator Sunday to check his physical condition." The commission is empowered to levy fines against offenders. There was some talk of Braddock and Gould being fined each if they disobey. But Braddock supposedly was guaranteed $500,000 to meet Louis. He has a $5,000 forfeit posted with the commission which he will lose if he doesn't show for the bout. Braddock Is Examined.

GRAND BEACH, Minn. (UP). Jim Braddock paused for a rigid physical examination Thursday in the midst of training for his 15 round title fight with Joe Louis next June 22. After the routine examination requested by the Illinois athletic commission, the champion planned to box at least six rounds with three sparring partners. Braddock was undisturbed by an order from the New York boxing commission to report May 28 for the scheduled bout with Max Schmeling.

The way Gotham's teams are going now they a i resemble two to beat just as the "experts" a i they would be i i a On recent form the Yanks appear booked for another flag. The Yanks have a six game winning streak intact and a three game lead over the second place Cleveland Indians.

Right now the American league battle is for second place between the Indians, Tigers and Athletics. The Giants, who are having one of their best western trips in years, rolled on to their fifth straight victory Wednesday and narrowed Pittsburgh's lead to a game and a half. The Pirates, who have dropped their last three games, were idle Wednesday. Yanks Win Shutout. The Yanks scored their seconc shutout in two days when Lefty Gomez blanked the Tigers, 7-0.

In scoring his fifth victory Gomez fanned six and issued 'no passes. Selkirk and Lazzeri hit homers in the Yanks' 13-hit attack on Detroit's two rookie Georges, Coffman and Gill. Cleveland moved from fourth to second place by staging a four run rally in the ninth to beat the Athletics, 8-6. Pinch Hitter Billy Sullivan hit a homer with two men on in the sixth and Pinch Hitter Bruce Campbell, first up in the ninth, hit a homer to start the winning rally. Solters and Pytlak drove in the other three runs in the ninth.

The Boston Red Sox slugged above under a spreading chestnut tree but Dr. John Bam "Jock" Sutherland, commander of Pittsburgh's Rose Bowl football champs, was in great fall form as he submitted to the candid interview. Q. Is it true what they say about Pitt--that you'll be stronger than ever this year? A. Positively no.

We lost three great players in Bobby LaRue, Averfill Daniel and Bill Glassford. Our freshmen team didn't amount to much, we got in only 25 days of spring practice in the six weeks because of rainy weather and our schedule is tough. Q. Which team gave you the most football, the greatest battle last year? A. I'd say Nebraska.

We won but it was one of the finest games have seen and one of the most Q. In your 14 years of coaching at Pitt, which do you think were he three greatest teams you ever aw in action? A. Notre Dame of 1930, Southern California of 1931 and Minneota of 1934. That last team of Rockne's in 1930 was a greater club by far than his-famous "Four Horsemen." Q. Can you have any reports on good earns coming up this fall? A.

S. Patent No. 11457963, a combination permanent waver, pipe cleaner, safety deposit box, and golf ball compressor. This the problem that confronted me, and -while I am a man of steel in a crisis, I'll have to admit I was befuddled, bewitched, and bewildered. Somebody, I know, ought to take a crack at Jacobus and the muzzle he has placed on professional golf players.

He hit freedom of speech a paralyzing body blow here two days ago when he gagged Wild Bill Mehlhorn, the Pericles of the putters. Mehlhorn, a straight-shooter from the mouth as well as the tee, offered an unsolicited opinion that Sam Snead should have been penalized a couple of strokes for picking up a ball on. the green. The casus belli is quite unimportant, but Mehlhorn's words will live after him, specially the crack that the P. G.

A. tournament is a "tiddlewinks tournament where the rules are made up as the boys go along." Orders an Apology. Jacobus is the gent I wish to swing on. The second he heard Wild Bill's words he and his cabinet repaired into the portable No. 10 Downing st.

he carries to all tournaments, and ordered that Mehlhorn publicly apologize upon threat of being waived out of the league. Mehlhorn had no choice. After all, he's a golfer and if he were dismissed from the lodge he would probably have to turn to horseshoeing, short order cooking, or watch repairing, and he has shown no aptitude at these arts. Brother Jacobus should take Injury to Cochrane Revives Argument Over How to Curb It. By fop right by XAXA.

(The Lincoln Journal and ttthtr NEW YORK.i--At first, when we saw Mickey Cochrane fall headlong in the dust and lie still, there wasn't much to do or say. Doc Painter, the Yankee trainer, came running out to the plate with a sort of camp cot stretcher, and some of the boys carried Mike into the clubhouse, and there the doctor put ice packs on his head and said he had a concussion. After the accident, there were the usual arguments about the bean-ball--how it is a more dangerous weapon, and more vicious, then a gun in the hand of a hop- head. That's true, certainly, but what can be done about it? The accidental bean-ball--and anyone says that Hadley threw a duster with malice aforethought is plainly crazy--will always be unavoidable while pitching procedure is what it is. I can think of no hard-and-fast ruling that would do away with the danger, except in the case of a pitcher who is palpably winging the ball at the enemy's skull.

There, of course, it is different. In the recent Dizzy Dean episode in St. Louis, it must have been obvious to the umpire at the plate, knowing Dizzy's disposition and normal powers of control, that the Diz was throwing dusters. A severe penalty can be written jnto the rules at once, to cover cases like that--perhaps one warning and then prompt ejection from the game. Case of Diz Dean.

I don't mean to aim that suggestion at Dean alone, with the idea of rubbing It in. Diz, today, is probably as much chastened by the Cochrane incident as anyone. You won't see many dusters thrown in either league for the next few weeks. But there should be a penalty prepared now to meet the reaction next month, when Mickey Cochrane is getting well and the pitchers are getting care- again. The late bulletins said that Mike was resting comfortably.

There is always the peril of meningitis, and the doctors seem agreed that, win or lose, the Tiger leader is likely to be out of action for the rest of the season. That practically removes Detroit from the pennant race; which couldn't have happened in a more unhappy and illogical way. But the Tigers absolve Hadley from all blame. "As near as I could make out." said Cy Perkins, "Mickey lost sight of the ball in the sun's glare. He didn't make a move to duck it, when it started to sail.

It was tough, but it wasn't 1-Iadley's fault."

Before disaster overtakes him, Jacobus had better get in his order for helium and leave that hot air alone.

Let's dismiss the fashion show for golfers with a few lines. Jimmy Thomson will win it since Viola Dana dresses him faultlessly in symphonies (and monogrammed ones, too) of blue, brown, gray, mauve, orchid, heliotrope, and vanilla. He looks like a well kept florist's window, and costs twice as much. Now for this wierd gadget with the high patent number. It was trotted out on the starting tee by a gentleman who refused to give his name.

He said that its purpose in life was to mash golf balls so tight that they would travel yards farther when struck by a club. He mentioned a lot of high- falutmg stuff about compression and everybody bit. Five minutes after the device was set up the pros had formed two lines, offering living proof that a golfer will go for anything. If all human ingenuity that has gone into making it easier to break par had been directed into serious channels, there wouldn't be an ailment pestering mankind, every family would have two automobiles stewing in the pot, and there would be more hands across the sea than you could shake a stick at. That is, if you are the type who likes to shake sticks at hands across the sea.
